haiku #587: paperweights / on the store’s comicbooks – / spring breeze

🌈 No need for guns, no need to fight 🌈

＊This work is made by overdubbing my guitar playing (mainly chord work) to winkandwoo and The Turtle Project(TTP) 's work "Hold The Line".Thanks to Winkandwoo and TTP for accepting my proposal.

 The reason why I worked on this work this time is because I want to sing and play with everyone.Therefore, I prepared a simple sheet music with lyrics and chords. There is a link above.

This work is probably one of the "protest songs". If I were to compare it to John Lennon's work, I think it would be "Give Peace A Chance." Yes, there are gems that confront discrimination, oppression, and prejudice, denounce injustice, and sing against war, and this is one of them. And not just to protest, but to sing together to "express your determination, clarify your way of life, question society, and lead to reform".

When winkandwoo released this work, I thought he was a great vocalist, singing a lot of important things and weights in the lyrics of "No need for guns, no need to fight".

And now many lament: "Ukraine is my country. Russia is my country. The country is killing my country." Hundreds of thousands of people have been forced from their homes, saying most people crossing the border from Russia don't want to kill people and don't want to serve this government. There is a movement to stigmatize this movement by branding it as a "traitor" and to use public power to contain it. I think protest songs play an active role here. Their lives and livelihoods are with us.

I hope that this song will help mankind break away from the "gun society" where mass shootings occur frequently, and that it will help all those who refuse military service in Russia. And I hope that this song will help unite Russian citizens against the invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops and all citizens who support the Russian Revolutionary Movement.

【Palm Muting】Also, for those who are practicing guitar, I think that this work will be a teaching material for effectively playing scales using open strings while playing low chords. This time I'm playing Palm Muting all the way through. Below are some video examples that may help you. I searched on youtube. Use this technique to sing while playing the guitar.

In the 16 bars starting from Am above, there are three short guitar improvisations. I recorded each one as if it was played by a different type of guitar player. I would like you to listen to that part as well :)

Let her know...
Let her know you love her so.
Let her know you won't let go.
Tell her that you care.
Tell her you'll be there for her.

Let Her Know

That one Old New York level of the Futurama game

"The Quilcom Trout synthesiser is a tribute to the Trautonium in its many incarnations and versions", Quote Rex Baxterfield, who created this free vst. The Trautonium is the first Synth from 1930, well known from A. Hitchcock's The Birds. Well, I used Trout 5 times in this track + drum and bass vst + flute ! ....  Famous are compositions for Trautonium from Paul Hindemith, German Composer, who accompanied the development of the Trautonium as a university teacher and was a kind of "Bürgerschreck" (musical bogey) at that time, because of his "modernity" ... :-)

The latest from Ghost of The Enemy....Happy Canada day all!!!

Take it or leave it, truth best believe it
Gone is the season, here is the reason

We've gone to ground, Nothing to save when there's none left around.
We've gone to ground, nothing to hear only silence the sound
Gone to ground, silence all around

Love it or lose it, hurts you to choose it
Look for a meaning, which way are you leaning?

It's never clear, what we are doing here
Cursed by the darkness or kissed by the light
Holding on tight on this eternal flight
We've gone to ground

Gone To Ground

(lyrics)

乾いた風が胸をすり抜けて
止まりかけた時間を呼び起こす
誰の声も届かない夜に
君の笑顔だけが確かだった

手のひらに宿ったあたたかさが
今もこの背中をそっと押してる

言葉じゃ追いつけない想いが
胸の奥でリズムを刻む
迷いも不安も抱きしめたまま
僕はまた一歩を踏み出す

ふとした瞬間に揺れ動く心
隠してた痛みが顔を出す
だけど君と過ごした季節が
まだ僕の中で光ってる

見えない未来に怯えるたび
その記憶がそばで灯をともす

静かな夜に響くリズムが
生きている証を伝えてる
どんな闇にも負けはしないと
この胸に誓った約束

遠ざかる影を追いかけながら
何度でも立ち上がれる気がした
心の奥に響くノイズさえ
今はもう確かな歌になる

砕けた夢のかけら集めて
明日へと線を描いてゆく
途切れそうな光の中でも
生まれてく新しいメロディ

Heartbeat

Rotten riffs crawling from the crypt 🪦💀🧟, drums pounding like bone hammers 🔨🩸, while the bassist is trapped in purgatory 🔌🔥⚰️🤘. (DEMO)
